Overview
“Behind his universally loved charisma, Scott Conant is one of the best cooks I know. His gutsy, Italian-inspired recipes on these pages will make any home cook’s mouth water.”—Bobby Flay
Thirty-five years into an illustrious career of restaurant openings across the country, widespread acclaim, and frequent appearances on the Food Network’s Chopped and many other shows, Scott Conant has returned home to create his most personal cookbook yet.
Meals cooked from simple, fresh ingredients were staples of Conant’s childhood in a New England family with roots in Southern Italy. From his grandparents’ garden to the dinner table, Conant’s recipes appreciate the nuances of different flavors and ingredients, and the strong connection between food and family.
The favorite recipes include:
- Braised Short Rib Risotto with Caramelized Onions
- Spinach and Ricotta Gnudi
- Tuna Crudo with Lemon and Pickled Fresnos
- New England-Style Lobster Rolls
- Bolognese with Parmigiano-Reggiano Fonduta
Focusing on these foods that Conant grew up with and the ones he makes for his loved ones today, Peace, Love, and Pasta compiles simple, fresh, and flavorful Italian recipes for the home cook to bring to their own family’s table.
These recipes are built on the art of cooking for love, fascination with flavors and ingredients, and the simple pleasures of taste and conviviality.
Packed with mouthwatering color photographs.
